Lipinets will look to stamp his place as an elite fighter when he takes on the accomplished and dangerous Garcia on Chwefror 10.
“Getting the title is one thing, but keeping the title is a more difficult task,” meddai Lipinets. “I’m not about to give it away to anybody. No disrespect to Mikey Garcia or anybody else out there, but I’m keeping my title. Beating Mikey Garcia will put me in the elite of boxing where I believe I belong. I’m happy my team was able to put this great fight together. I can promise you this won’t be a snoozer. It’s going to be an action-packed fight for sure.”

Two undefeated fighters, champion versus champion,” meddai Richard Schaefer, Cadeirydd & Prif Swyddog Gweithredol Chwaraeon Ringstar. “It’s a big challenge for Mikey Garcia to win a championship belt in his fourth weight class. Lipinets never backs down and he’s out to show that’s he one of the biggest punchers in the division. A win for Lipinets is a game-changer for his family and his career. A win for Mikey is another feather in his cap and will help him be recognized as pound-for-pound best in the world. I’m happy to be back in San Antonio at the Alamodome. I’ve promoted some big fights there. San Antonio fight fans are in for a real treat seeing two of the best fighting each other. I’m sure the fans will embrace this fight.”
“We have another intriguing matchup of two young, hungry undefeated fighters who lay it on the line every time they step into the ring,” Dywedodd Tom Brown, Llywydd TGB Promotions. “As talented as Mikey is, you can’t count Lipinets out. He’s one of the hardest hitters in the 140-pound division. He’s a tough competitor and there’s a reason why he’s a world champion. He knows this is a career-defining fight and he’s going to do everything he can to spoil the party for Garcia in San Antonio on Feb. 10.”
“In three consecutive fights on SHOWTIME since his return to the sport, Mikey Garcia has solidified his position on boxing’s pound-for-pound lists,” Dywedodd Stephen Espinoza, Is-lywydd Gweithredol a Rheolwr Cyffredinol, Chwaraeon Showtime. “Mikey has proven he’s willing to take on the most avoided opponents in any division as he seeks out the biggest possible matchups in the sport. He’ll face yet another dangerous opponent in Sergey Lipinets, an undefeated champion in his own right, as he seeks to become a four-division world champion. On the heels of Errol Spence vs. Lamont Peterson on Ionawr 20, a matchup of consensus top-10 welterweights, we’re proud to deliver this main event of top-5 ranked fighters to build on the momentum.”
Barthelemy (26-0, 13 Kos), who was born in Arroyo Naranjo, Cuba and now lives in Las Vegas, has won world titles at 130 ac 135 bunnoedd. He defeated Relikh by unanimous decision in his debut at 140 pound in his last fight on Mai 20. If he defeats Relikh again, he will become the first Cuban boxer to win world championships in three different weight classes. He defeated Argenis Mendez by unanimous decision to win the 130-pound world title in 2014 and a year later scored a unanimous decision over Denis Shafikov for the 135-pound world title. Barthelemy, 31, has two brothers, Yan and Leduan, who are professional boxers who he trains alongside with under the tutelage of Ismael Salas.
Relikh (21-2, 19 Kos) believes that he won the first match with Barthelemy and that the scorecards did not reflect the competitive nature of the fight. The 28-year-old nearly had Barthelemy out after landing a barrage of punches that penned Barthelemy on the ropes, but he was only awarded a knockdown. In the eighth round, Barthelemy came back to drop Relikh with a body shot. Shortly after the Mai 20 title eliminator, the WBA ordered a rematch, this time to be contested for the vacant 140-pound title. This will be Relikh’s second world title shot after the fighter from Minsk, Belarus lost a unanimous decision to Ricky Burns in Glasgow, Scotland on Oct. 7, 2016.

National Harbor (Mai 20) – From the MGM National Harbor “Mr.” Gary Russell Jr, (28-1, 17 Kos) had a successful homecoming in front of a nearly sold out crowd as he defended his WBC Featherweight World title with a seventh-round stoppage against the very tough, strong-willed Columbian Oscar ESCANDON (25-3, 17 Kos) yn y prif achos o Showtime PENCAMPWRIAETH BOCSIO.
Russell Jr. took control of the action from the outset, peppering the shorter Escandon at will and dropping him in the third.
Fodd bynnag, the brave Escandon fought his way back into the fight in the fourth and fifth stanzas, but Russell stormed into the seventh, battering the hurt Escandon and dropping him early, causing referee Harvey Dock to stop the fight at the 0:59 mark of the round (Cliciwch YMA to watch the TKO).
About the victory, Russell Jr. Dywedodd, “Yn gyntaf ac yn bennaf, I want to say happy birthday to my father. Secondly, I’d like to tell all the fans that came to support me: I love you all. Diolch yn fawr.
“I fought a tough competitor. I knew Escandon wanted to come and bring his best. I knew he was going to come forward. I was ready for him. We are warriors.
“I want Lomachenko [nesaf], that’s a no-brainer. I don’t want to do it for the fans or for the media, I want to do it for myself. And I want to do it twice. I’ll knock him out the first time and then, he’ll want me to fight him again.
“I’d love to unify against all the other guys in the featherweight division. I’d like Leo Santa Cruz, Lee Selby, Oscar Valdez.”
About the knockout loss, “I was getting my rhythm going and I felt like Gary was getting tired. I didn’t see him coming with the big punch he threw at the end and that was it. I went down and was hoping to get a 10 count, but the referee didn’t give it to me and he stopped the fight.
“I knew that Gary was going to go fast from the first to the fifth round and it was part of my strategy to let him do that and get tired. It didn’t work unfortunately.
“Now we need to go back to the drawing board to rest and see what my manager has planned for me.”
Said trainer and father Gary Russell Sr., “I’m ecstatic. I’m really happy. I got three wins. Three stoppages. It’s my birthday. Rwy'n 15 minutes from home and I can go home and relax.
“We prepared fully for Mr. Escandon. We knew he was going to do what he did – come forward. I don’t want to diminish or take anything away from Mr. Escandon. He really is a hard, rough fighter. Throughout the course of the fight, I instructed Gary to hit him with some good shots. Some hard shots. It is a brutal sport.”
Co-featured on SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING in a 12-round clash for the IBF Interim Super Middleweight Title, Y Fflint, Michigan’s Andre Dirrell, (26-2, 16 Kos), was declared the winner after round eight as Jose Uzcategui, (26-2, 22 Kos) o Merida, Venezuela, was disqualified for a punch after the bell sounded to end the eighth round.
Uzcategui started fast, battering Dirrell from the opening round, cutting off the ring and slamming away with body and head shot through the first three rounds. Dirrell saw success starting in the fourth round, countering Uzcategui and scoring
yn dda.
Over the next four rounds, the contenders traded even as the fight became more hotly contested. At the end of the eighth round, with Dirrell backed into a neutral corner, Uzcategui let loose with a three-punch combination, the last left hand hitting the southpaw after the bell as he fell to the combination.
Following a delay to allow medical personnel to attend to Dirrell, referee Bill Clancy declared that Uzcategui was disqualified with Dirrell being declared the winner.
Said referee Bill Clancy about his decision, “The bell rang to stop the round. The round was over and Andre [Dirrell] was knocked out with an illegal punch. So therefore, Dirrell will win this fight by disqualification.
“That’s a blatant foul. Earlier in the fight, I had warned Uzcategui. I warned him. Dirrell wins the fight, he was clearly unable to continue.”
About the ending, Dirrell said, “All I remember was him [Uzcategui] throwing a shot at me at the same time the bell rang. After that everything was blurry. I remember a shot and then all went fuzzy.
“I forgive Uzcategui. I forgive his camp. I don’t want to win a championship like this. I wanted to win fair and square. But I forgive him.
Following the decision, Dirrell’s trainer and uncle Leon Lawson punched Uzcategui in the corner, sparking a brief altercation in the ring that was quelled by MGM National Harbor security and local police.
“I’m sorry for what my coach has done. My coach is my family, my uncle, and he was worried. He cares for me. He loves me. Please forgive him.
“I’m going to stand up like a man. I didn’t win like I wanted to, but I’ll be back. I’m going to come back as soon as they let me.”
Stated a very disappointed Uzcategui, “I felt very good. I was hurting him the entire fight. I felt like I could hurt him anytime I wanted. Nothing he hit me with hurt me.
“I was throwing a three-punch combination and I didn’t hear the bell. I didn’t mean to hit him. The third punch wasn’t that hard of a punch. I was surprised he stayed down.
“He did the same thing against Abraham that he did against me tonight. He quit against me and he quit against him. I deserve to be the winner.”
The live televised fights in The Theater kicked-off with two-division world championRances Barthelemy (26-0, 13 Kos) winning a 12-round unanimous decision over valiant Kiryl Relikh, (25-3, 16 Kos), of Baranovichi, Byelorussia. Scores in the WBA Super Lightweight eliminator were 116-110, 115-111 ac 117-109.
The opening two rounds of the fight featured excellent action with both fighters attempting to impose their will. In the third round Relikh suffered a low blow resulting in a two-minute delay, Fodd bynnag,, no point deduction was made by referee Kenny Chevalier. Following the low blow, the shorter Relikh became much more aggressive.
With the undefeated, blue-haired Barthelemy switching stances often in the fourth stanza, he was able to score at will against Relikh.
Fodd bynnag, Relikh came out charging in the fifth, battering away against Barthelemy who was caught against the ropes and scoring a knockdown when the ropes held the Cuban up from a barrage of hard punches.
Recovering nicely in the sixth and seventh, Barthelemy badly hurt Relikh with a multitude of body shots from both hands.
In the eight round Barthelemy truly turned the tide for good in the ninth, drilling Relikh to the canvas with a blistering left hook to the body. Through the championship rounds it was all Barthelemy who finished strong against the game but outgunned Relikh.
Said the victorious Barthelemy, “It feels great to be going forward. The 11-month layoff really took a toll on my body and I felt it in the ring.
“I knew it was a close fight but knew I should get a unanimous decision.
“Relikh was a hard hitter. He surprised me with a right hook in the 5th round and I hit the canvas, so I knew I had to be careful going forward. I knew I had lost that round and had to come back stronger.
“I took the sixth round to take a breather and then I came back to work the body. Once I knocked him down, I saw that he was hurt and protecting himself upstairs a lot more so I knew I was going to have to be more strategic to come out victorious.”
Replied a very disappointed Relikh, “Of course I thought I won. Even TV thought I won. The referee did his job when he called it a knockdown in the fifth. I thought it was over.”
“The two low blows definitely affected me. It takes the wind out of you. This is boxing not MMA.”
Hot super bantamweight prospect Gary Antonio Russell gwella i 8-0 with six knockouts with a dominating performance and knockout stoppage of Puerto Rico’s Jovany Fuentes, (7-9, 6 Kos). Following knockdowns in the second and third stanzas, the bout was called to a halt at 0:22 o rownd tri.
Making his pro debut, super ysgafn Gary Antuanne Russell, (1-0 1 KO) wasted no time dropping Joshua Ross, (2-4-4) of Monroe, LA to the canvas three times enroute to a stoppage victory at the 2:25 mark of the initial stanza.
Gervonta Davis went on the road in the first defense of his IBF Junior Lightweight World Championship and made a statement with an emphatic third-round TKO of previously undefeated local favorite Liam Walsh in the opening bout of SHOWTIME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING from Copper Box Arena in London.
The southpaw Davis (18-0, 17 Kos) set the pace from the opening bell, connecting seemingly at will with a strong left hook. Yn y drydedd rownd, America’s youngest world champion floored Walsh with a strong left after a series of brutal connecting combos on the inside. Walsh got up, but the onslaught continued seconds later and referee Michael Alexander stopped the championship bout at 2:11, with Walsh defenseless and on unsteady legs.
“Tonight we were in the groove,” Davis said. “I think he was hurt pretty bad. The ref did his job and it was just a matter of time. I used my boxing IQ tonight and picked my shots, and when I picked my shots I got him out of there.
“I’m still on the rise. I became a champion super-fast, but I’m still rising and there’s more to come.”
Promoter Floyd Mayweather was ringside in London to support his fighter, who he’s christened “the future of boxing.”
Walsh (21-1, 14 Kos), who entered the bout as the No. 1 challenger and the decided local favorite at Copper Box, was disappointed with the stoppage.
“Mae'n gyflym iawn, very active, but that was too quick,” Walsh said. “He won fair and square, but sometimes they stop the fight too early. I never got an opportunity. I’m not saying the result would be different, but give me a chance.
“I’d love to fight him again. I’d fight him for next to nothing.”

Dyma beth oedd gan y cyfranogwyr i ddweud Dydd Iau o Harbwr Cenedlaethol MGM:
GARY RUSSELL JR.
“Dwi byth yn chwyddo digwyddiad, er ei fod gartref. Mae'r amcan terfynol yr un peth o hyd. Ond rwy'n credu ei bod hi'n cŵl bod pawb yn ein cymdogaeth yn cael cyfle i fod yn yr arena a gweld beth rydyn ni'n ei wneud.
“Rwy'n 100 y cant yn barod yn gorfforol ac yn feddyliol ar gyfer yr her ac rydw i ar ben popeth y gallaf fod.
“Pan fyddwch chi'n cael eich dal yn yr hype, mae'n ddiffyg ynoch chi'ch hun. Mae'n rhaid i chi allu canolbwyntio ar yr amcan dros bopeth arall.
“Rwy'n credu yn fy ngallu ond hefyd yng ngallu fy mrodyr. Felly dwi ddim yn nerfus amdanyn nhw. Rwy'n gwybod beth maen nhw wedi'i ddysgu. Maent yn ymddwyn fel dynion ifanc i mewn ac allan o'r cylch.
“Rwyf am gael pwl uno ar ôl hyn. Rwy'n barod ar gyfer unrhyw un o hyrwyddwyr eraill y byd. Gallwn eu leinio i gyd yn yr un noson os ydych chi eisiau. Os na allaf gael yr ymladd hynny, Rydw i'n mynd i symud i fyny mewn pwysau a bwlio o amgylch y dynion mwy hyn.
“Rwy'n edrych ar bob ymladdwr fel eu unigolyn eu hunain. Nid ydym yn paratoi'r un ffordd ar gyfer pob gwrthwynebydd. Mae'n ymladdwr caled sy'n dod ymlaen. Mae'n gorfforol iawn ac rwy'n disgwyl iddo fod ar ei orau ar ddydd Sadwrn. Mae i fyny i mi wrthweithio yr hyn y mae'n ei wneud.
“Rwyf wrth fy modd y gamp hon. Rwyf wrth fy modd yr hyn yr wyf yn ei wneud. Rwyf wrth fy modd yn gallu paratoi ar gyfer neb arall, ond y person ar draws y cylch ac yna ei ddatgymalu.
“Fe wnaethon ni weithio ar amlochredd fwyaf. Rydym yn credu yn y wyddoniaeth felys. Mae llawer o'r dynion hyn yn ennill oherwydd eu bod yn gryfach ac yn gyflymach. Rydyn ni eisiau bod yn fwy technegol gadarn hefyd.”
OSCAR ESCANDON
“Mae hon yn frwydr bwysig iawn ar gyfer fy ngyrfa. Mae hyn yn mynd i fy nyrchafu i'r lle rydw i eisiau bod a rhoi'r llwyfan i mi wneud unrhyw beth yn y gamp. Rwy'n barod iawn ar gyfer hyn.
“Rwy'n teimlo'n gryf ac yn iach ar 126-pwys. Rwy'n canolbwyntio ar yr ymladd hwn Dydd Sadwrn nos. Byddaf yn ymladd yn erbyn unrhyw un ond ar hyn o bryd mae'n rhaid i mi fynd heibio i Gary Russell Jr..
“Yn fy ymladd diwethaf fi oedd yr isdog. Roedd pobl yn fy nghyfrif allan. Mae'r un peth yn berthnasol yma. Rydw i wedi gwneud y gwaith ac rwy'n hyderus fy mod i'n mynd i ennill.
“Nid oedd gen i wersylloedd hyfforddi cyflawn gyda fy nghyn hyfforddwyr, ond nawr rydw i gyda Ruben Guerrero. Rwy'n dysgu cymaint. Gallwch edrych arnaf yn fy ymladd blaenorol a byddwch yn gweld gwelliant enfawr nawr.
“Rydw i eisiau'r gwyrdd hwnnw (CLlC) gwregys llawer. Gwyrdd yw fy hoff liw. Rwyf am fod y gorau ac i mi, mae ennill y teitl hwnnw'n arwydd mai fi yw'r gorau. I wneud hynny mae'n rhaid i mi guro'r gorau, a dyna Gary Russell Jr..
“Nid wyf yn hoffi siarad llawer ond dywedaf fy mod yn dod i ddod â'r teitl byd hwn yn ôl i Colombia. Rwy'n parchu Gary ond fy meddylfryd yw fy mod i'n mynd â'r teitl hwn adref.”
ANDRE DIRRELL
“Mae wedi bod yn daith galed hir i mi. Ond rydw i bob amser wedi llwyddo i ddringo yn ôl ar ei ben. Bydd y gwaith caled rydw i wedi'i wneud yn ei wneud Dydd Sadwrn gwaith hawdd nos.
“Mae fy ngwrthwynebydd yn ymladdwr gwych. Os dylai unrhyw un fod yn unol â theitl, y dyn hwn ydyw. Mae ganddo'r pŵer ac mae ganddo'r sgil. Rwy'n credu ei fod yn erbyn gwrthwynebydd gwell a chaletach.
“Rydw i'n mynd i fynd yn y cylch ac arddangos fy holl alluoedd. Rwy'n hyderus iawn ac yn barod. Mae'n bryd i Andre ddod ar y brig ac aros ar ben.
“Rydw i wedi bod allan o'r cylch ers tro ond yn bwysicaf oll, Rydw i wedi aros yn y gampfa wrth hyfforddi trwy'r amser. Rydw i wedi cadw'n bositif yn feddyliol hefyd. Mae popeth yn mynd i fyny ar hyn o bryd ac rydw i'n mynd i fanteisio.
“Mae gan Uzcategui bopeth sydd ei angen ar bencampwr y byd i gyrraedd y teitl hwnnw, ond mae'n wynebu cystadleuydd mwy medrus Mai 20. Mae'n haeddu'r cyfle a dyna pam y gwnes i hyfforddi mor galed ar gyfer yr ymladd hwn.
“Mae'r teitl yn golygu'r byd i mi. Rydyn ni'n ymladd am y teitlau yn gyntaf. Rydyn ni i gyd yn dod o'r amaturiaid lle cawson ni dlysau. Bydd fy nghariad bob amser yma gyda'r gamp tan y diwrnod y byddaf yn ymddeol.”
JOSE UZCATEGUI
“Nid ydych chi eisiau colli unrhyw un o'r ymladdiadau hyn ar ddydd Sadwrn nos. Mae'n gerdyn gwych ac rydw i'n bwriadu dwyn y sioe.
“Rwy'n hoffi pan fydd fy ngwrthwynebydd yn siarad llawer. Ni all unrhyw un o'r pethau y mae fy ngwrthwynebydd yn eu dweud ei helpu yn y cylch. Dim ond fi, ef a'n dyrnau.
“Mae'n llawer o gyfrifoldeb i fod y prif gystadleuydd ar gyfer y gwregys. Rhaid imi ei gwneud yn glir ein bod yn haeddu hyn fel y gallaf symud ymlaen at bethau mwy a gwell.
“Mae pobl yn mynd i gael gweld fy ngrym yn cael ei arddangos Dydd Sadwrn nos, ond hefyd fy sgiliau eraill. Gallaf wneud y cyfan yn y cylch ac rydw i'n mynd i'w brofi.
“Ar ôl hyn rydw i eisiau cyflogi James DeGale a Gilberto Ramirez. Rwy'n dod i lanhau'r rhaniad cyfan hwn a bod yn ddiamheuol. Mae'n dechrau ar ddydd Sadwrn.”
RANCES Barthélemy
“Rwy'n byw breuddwyd ar hyn o bryd na ddychmygais i fy hun erioed mewn miliwn o flynyddoedd. Bob tro dwi'n cael siarad gyda fy mam yng Nghiwba, Rwy'n dweud wrthi am y freuddwyd hon fy mod i'n byw ar hyn o bryd a sut mae'n dal i fod yn swrrealaidd i mi. Er mwyn gallu ymladd ar y cardiau mawr hyn yn yr Unol Daleithiau. ar ôl y daith hir, wedi'r holl anawsterau, Ni allwn fod yn fwy ddiolchgar.
“Mae bod yn bencampwr y byd mewn dwy adran bwysau wahanol yn rhywbeth afreal i mi o hyd ar ôl i bobl amau ​​a fyddwn i hyd yn oed yn dod yn bencampwr y byd un diwrnod. Ond nid yw'r daith hon yn stopio yma i mi. Mae gen i'r ysfa i ddal ati, creu hanes i'm pobl, ac ymladd yr enwau mawr wrth focsio.
“Mae pawb yn fy nhîm yn cefnogi ac yn cymell ein gilydd oherwydd rydyn ni'n gwybod bod yn rhaid i ni fel Ciwbaiaid weithio ddwywaith mor galed â phawb arall. Mae cynrychiolaeth annheg o focswyr Ciwba ymhlith y wasg a chefnogwyr yma yn America. Rydym yn cael ein camddehongli fel diffoddwyr diflas felly rydym yn benderfynol o ddileu'r stigma hwnnw a phrofi i bawb y gallwn ffrwgwd a chynnal sioe dda lawn cymaint ag y gallwn ni focsio.
“Rwyf wedi bod yn gweithio ar rai pethau newydd a gwahanol i'w hychwanegu at fy arsenal y gwersyll hyfforddi hwn. Mae fy nhîm cyfan wedi bod yn anhygoel ac wedi fy ngwthio bob dydd.
“Peidiwch â cholli'r frwydr hon ar ddydd Sadwrn nos. Bydd yn gyffrous ac yn gyffrous. Rwy'n dod i gael buddugoliaeth ysblennydd.”
KIRYL RELIKH
“Rwy'n hapus iawn i fod yma a bod yn rhan o'r sioe wych hon. Fe wnaf fy ngorau i roi gornest wych ar ddydd Sadwrn.
“Roedd y gwersyll yn berffaith. Mae gen i dîm gwych ac rydw i'n barod am unrhyw beth. Fe wnaethon ni weithio'n galed ac fe fydd yn berfformiad gwych.
“Rwy'n barod am unrhyw arddull y gall Rances Barthelemy ddod â hi i'r cylch. Roeddem yn meddwl ein bod wedi cael y fuddugoliaeth yn yr Alban yn erbyn Ricky Burns, ond mae'n anodd iawn ennill ar bwyntiau ar y ffordd.
“Rwyf bob amser yn ymladd mewn gwahanol wledydd felly dim ond un arall ar fy rhestr yw hwn. Mae'n normal i mi. Rwy'n barod iawn ar gyfer yr her ac rwy'n disgwyl ymladd mawr.
“Gobeithio bod pobl yn hoffi fy steil. Rydw i'n mynd i ddifyrru'r cefnogwyr a chael buddugoliaeth dros Rances Barthelemy ar ddydd Sadwrn nos.”
GARY ANTUANNE RUSSELL
“Rwy'n cael codi'n iawn lle gadewais i ffwrdd ar ôl y Gemau Olympaidd. Rwy'n ymladd yr un noson gyda fy mrodyr am y tro cyntaf cyhyd. Roedd yn un o fy ymladd amatur cyntaf pan wnaethon ni ddiwethaf.
“Rwy'n teimlo'n wirioneddol dda. Rydyn ni'n gwneud datganiad ac rydyn ni'n creu hanes. Beth sydd ddim i fod yn gyffrous yn ei gylch?
“Yn feddyliol ac yn emosiynol fe wnaeth y Gemau Olympaidd fy helpu yn fawr ar gyfer y manteision. Mae'n rhaid i chi ddatblygu dros amser. Rydyn ni bob amser yn hyfforddi ac yn hogi ein hoffer. Mae hwn yn gam gwahanol, dyna i gyd.
“Gobeithio bod pawb yn barod amdani Dydd Sadwrn nos. Roedd rhai anffodion yn y Gemau Olympaidd. Mae bywyd yn mynd i daflu lympiau atoch chi i ddod drosodd, a dyna beth dwi'n mynd i wneud. Gwell i bawb gadw eu llygaid ar agor Dydd Sadwrn, oherwydd gallai fod yn gyflym.”
GARY ANTONIO RUSSELL
“Rwy'n gyffrous iawn am yr ymladd hwn ac yn cystadlu ochr yn ochr â'm brodyr. Mae'n teimlo'n dda dod adref ac ymladd. Bydd fy nheulu a ffrindiau yn yr adeilad.
“Ni allaf aros i gyrraedd y cylch a dangos yr hyn yr ydym wedi bod yn gweithio mor galed arno. Mae'r holl oriau yn y gampfa gyda fy nhad a'm brodyr yn mynd i dalu ar ei ganfed ar noson ymladd.
“Rwyf wedi gweld rhywfaint o fideo o fy ngwrthwynebydd. Rwy'n gwybod ei wendidau a'i gryfderau. Rydyn ni'n mynd i ddod i'w ecsbloetio ar noson ymladd.”
SR GARY RUSSELL., Tad a Hyfforddwr y Russells
“Rydyn ni'n gweithio'n galed yn y gampfa. Mae gan bawb gynllun nes iddyn nhw gael eu taro. Rydyn ni'n gwybod ei fod yn mynd i ddod â phwysau a byddwn ni'n barod amdano.
“Rwy'n hapus iawn am y cyfle hwn. Gallwn gyflawni'r cyfan mewn un noson a chynnal sioe wych i bawb.
“Rwy'n bendant yn y modd ymladd. Nid oes unrhyw nerfau ychwanegol o gwbl. Rwyf am wneud hyn a gwneud pethau'n iawn.
“Ni allaf roi Escandon yn yr un categori â'r dynion gorau yr ydym wedi'u hwynebu. Mae'n ymladdwr byr. Mae'r rhan fwyaf o bobl yn y dosbarthiadau pwysau hyn yn dalach na Gary. Ar y maint hwnnw, yr unig ffordd y gallwch ymladd yw yn syml. Dyw e ddim yn mynd allan i focsio ni.”
RUBEN GUERRERO, Hyfforddwr Escandon
“Rydyn ni'n barod yma. Rydyn ni'n mynd i wneud yr hyn sydd ei angen. Rydym yn gwybod beth rydym yn ei erbyn. Mae'n un o'r goreuon. Byddwn yn profi pwy yw'r gorau ar ddydd Sadwrn. Mae hyn yn mynd i ddod i lawr i ryfel. Mae Gary yn gwybod beth mae'n mynd yn ei erbyn.
“Cynorthwyais Escandon i sefydlu gwersyll yn Las Vegas ar gyfer yr ymladd hwn oherwydd roedd hwn yn gyfle enfawr. Roedden ni i fyny yn y mynyddoedd a dyna lle roeddwn i eisiau iddo. Mae'n mynd i fod yn wych ar noson ymladd. Bydd yn barod i fynd. Nid yw'n hawdd hyfforddi yn Vegas.
“Rydyn ni'n dod i ennill. Ni allwn reoli'r beirniaid ond rydym yn gwybod eu bod yn deg. Rydyn ni'n disgwyl ysgwyd teg. Rydyn ni'n mynd i reoli'r hyn y gallwn ni.”

LONDON (Mai 18, 2017) - Pencampwr Byd Pwysau Iau Iau IBF Gervonta Davis, undefeated Dim. 1 cymerodd y cystadleuydd Liam Walsh a'r hyrwyddwr Floyd Mayweather sesiwn jarring yn ystod Dydd Iau cynhadledd i'r wasg olaf yng Ngwesty Landmark yn Llundain ddeuddydd o'r blaen Dydd Sadwrn gwrthdaro teitl y byd ar SHOWTIME o Copper Box Arena.

 

Davis’s “Tank” Davis, Pencampwr byd ieuengaf America, yn ceisio dod yr Americanwr cyntaf i amddiffyn ei deitl ar bridd Prydain yn llwyddiannus mewn bron i ddegawd *, tra Walsh (21-0, 14 Kos) yn anelu at ddadwneud y dyn bod Mayweather wedi bedyddio “dyfodol bocsio.” (*Nodyn: Paulie Malignaggi vs.. Lovemore Ndou i mewn 2008)

 

Davis vs. Mae Walsh yn rhan o safle hollt, telecast BOXING CHAMPIONSHIP pedwar-ymladd SHOWTME sy'n dechrau ddydd Sadwrn, Mai 20, yn 6 p.m. A/3 p.m. PT. Yn y prif ddigwyddiad, Gary Russell Jr. Bydd yn gwneud ei ail amddiffyniad teitl pwysau plu a'i gartref hir-ddisgwyliedig yn erbyn yr heriwr gorfodol Oscar Escandon yn fyw o Harbwr Cenedlaethol MGM ychydig y tu allan i Washington, D.C.

 

Davis, 22 oed, sydd wedi ennill trwy guro i mewn 16 o'i 17 ymladd proffesiynol, yn gwneud yr amddiffyniad cyntaf o'r gwregys IBF i ennill trwy KO dros Jose Pedraza a oedd heb ei guro o'r blaen ym mis Ionawr. Mae'r Walsh, sy'n 30 oed, wedi ennill trwy guro mewn tri o'i bedwar pwl olaf a bydd yn ffefryn lleol penderfynol mewn Arena Blwch Copr disgwyliedig sydd wedi'i werthu allan..

 

Trodd yr hyrwyddwr mawr punt-am-bunt Mayweather a dau frawd Walsh, cyd-ymladdwyr proffesiynol Michael a Ryan, arwain y jarring yn ystod Dydd Iau dathliadau gyda Mayweather yn honni “Rydw i 40 mlwydd oed a byddaf yn cicio pob un o'ch tri asyn yn yr un noson. ”

 

Ni chafodd Tîm Walsh “ei ddychryn un darn bach” gan Mayweather na Tank, tra addawodd y depaw Davis “Ar ddydd Sadwrn noson byddwch chi ar eich asyn. Ac yna gall eich brodyr fynd i mewn nesaf. ”

 

Isod mae uchafbwyntiau o'r hyn oedd gan y cyfranogwyr i'w ddweud ar ddydd Iau:

 

GERVONTA DAVIS:

“Rydw i ar lefel hollol wahanol. Rwy'n gwybod eu bod wedi eich adeiladu'n dda, ond rydych chi wedi cael eich gollwng o'r blaen. Maen nhw wedi bod yn eich amddiffyn chi rhag y pŵer, felly dwi'n gwybod nad oes gennych ên. Ar ddydd Sadwrnnoson byddwch chi ar eich asyn. Ac yna gall eich brodyr fynd i mewn nesaf.

 

“Peidiwch â rhedeg Dydd Sadwrn nos.

 

“Rydw i newydd fod yn ceisio aros pennawd gwastad. Mae cael y gwregys hwnnw yn dod â mi gymaint â hynny'n agosach at yr hyn rydw i eisiau ei wneud - i gymryd drosodd y gamp o focsio. Gyda'r perfformiad a roddais ar ddydd Sadwrn nos bydd yn dod â mi gam yn nes at fod yn seren y bocsio ac yn dilyn ar ôl Floyd Mayweather.

 

“Mae cael Floyd yn fy nghornel yn rhoi llawer o hyder i mi. Mae Floyd wedi bod yn eithaf ymarferol gyda mi, mae wedi bod yn codi a hyfforddi a rhedeg gyda mi. Fo oedd fy arwr yn y gamp o focsio yn dod i fyny felly mae ei gael yn fy nghornel nawr yn anhygoel.

 

“Enillais y gwregys a nawr fy ffocws yw cymryd drosodd y gamp.

 

“Yn tyfu i fyny yn Baltimore, mae ganddo gyfradd droseddu uchel. Mae wedi bod yn anodd. Mae'r lle rydw i o'r gampfa yn y cwfl. Oni bai am y gampfa, byddwn i naill ai yn y carchar neu'n farw. Nid dyna'r hyn yr wyf am fod. Fe arbedodd paffio fy mywyd. ”

 

LIAM WALSH:

“Rydw i bob amser yn hyderus. Fel y dywedais lawer gwaith, roedd ei berfformiad yn erbyn Pedraza yn dda iawn. Rwy'n ei gymeradwyo. Tanc yw'r ymladdwr gorau i mi ddod yn ei erbyn yn fy ngyrfa hyd yn hyn, ond fi hefyd yw'r ymladdwr gorau y bydd yn dod yn ei erbyn yn ei yrfa hyd yn hyn. Felly mae'n ymladd mawr.

 

“Mae e’n gorfforol dda iawn. Mae'n gyflym iawn, pwerus iawn. Mae'n dyrnwr da a pherfformiodd y tu hwnt i'w flynyddoedd yn erbyn Pedraza. Ni allwch guro ei berfformiad o gwbl, ond mae yna lawer o gwestiynau o hyd y mae'n rhaid iddo eu hateb.

 

“Nid yw safiad y de yn effeithio gormod arnaf. Gallaf newid rhwng y ddau. Rwy'n gyffyrddus yn y ddau safiad fel nad yw hynny'n fy mhoeni.

 

“Dw i ddim yn credu y galla i ei roi mewn geiriau beth fyddai’n ei olygu i ennill y teitl. Mae wedi bod yn freuddwyd i mi ers pan oeddwn i'n blentyn bach. Y teimlad, yr emosiwn, Ni allaf ei roi mewn geiriau. Dyma noson fwyaf fy mywyd.

 

“Yn bendant mae yna ddiffygion yn ei gêm ac maen nhw yno i mi eu hecsbloetio. Rwy'n bwriadu manteisio ar ei gamgymeriadau. Pan oeddwn yn 22, yn bendant, gwnaethpwyd camgymeriadau na fyddwn yn eu gwneud nawr. Felly efallai mai dyma'r amser perffaith i'w ymladd.

 

“Dydw i ddim wedi dychryn un darn bach. Nid gan Floyd, nid gan Tanc, nid gan unrhyw un.

 

“Rwy’n rhagweld y byddaf yn ennill yr ornest. Ni fyddwn yn synnu pe bawn yn ennill trwy guro, Ni fyddwn yn synnu pe bawn yn ennill ar bwyntiau. Ni fyddwch yn fy ngweld yn dathlu fel dyn gwallgof os byddaf yn bwrw Tank allan oherwydd fy mod yn gwybod fy mod yn gallu. "

 

FLOYD Mayweather:

“Nid un perfformiad yn unig mohono. Mae'n cymryd mwy nag un perfformiad yn unig. Credwn yn wirioneddol y gall fod yn ymladdwr gwych, ond daeth yn ei ornest olaf gyda dim ond 16 ymladd a churo'r pencampwr. Rydyn ni'n gwybod nad yw'n mynd i orwedd. Mae gan y plentyn hwn ddeinameit yn ei ddwy law. Os bydd yn dal i fynd allan yno gan guro diffoddwyr gwych ni ellir ei wadu.

 

“Pan mae ei oleuadau, camera, gweithredu a'r gloch yn canu, 17 amseroedd y daeth allan yn fuddugol a 16 trwy (knockout).

 

“Mae ei dîm yn gwneud gwaith rhyfeddol, ond fy ngwaith i fel ffrind a ffigwr tad yw dweud wrtho am ddod i Vegas i gael y gwaith gorau iddo. Roeddem am iddo gael gwahanol edrychiadau. We want guys that were going to push him, give him different styles.

 

“This kid, he busts his ass day in and day out. We’re going to continue to go out there and do what we do.

 

“I already conquered your country once (with Ricky Hatton) and now we’re going to conquer it again ar ddydd Sadwrn.

 

“I don’t miss being in the gym at all. If I can push this fighter to surpass me and break every record, that’s a goal of mine. That’s what we’re here to do. Mae cofnodion yn cael eu gwneud i gael ei dorri.

 

“I remember when I met Tank on the Canelo (Alvarez) press tour and he asked to take a photo with me. When I took a photo with him I said, ‘there’s something about that kid that looks special.’

 

“He came to my gym and put in some real good work and I reached out to him and said, ‘whatever it takes to work with you and get you to the next level, let’s make it happen.’ I told him, ‘if you listen to me and continue to work hard I truly believe you can be world champion within 24 mis.’ And that’s just one stepping stone. As of right now he’s one of the only fighters in boxing facing back-to-back undefeated fighters.

 

“Frank Warren, Liam Walsh, we just want to commend you guys for stepping up to the plate and making this fight happen and giving the fans what they want to see. The fans want to see blood, sweat and tears.

 

“Tank is always in tremendous fights, he’s a big knockout artist. I truly believe in my man, and I want to work with him until the end of his career.”

AMERICA’S YOUNGEST CHAMP GERVONTA DAVIS & NO. 1-RANKED CONTENDER LIAM WALSH MEDIA CONFERENCE CALL HIGHLIGHTS IN ADVANCE OF MAY 20 WORLD TITLE FIGHT ON SHOWTIME®

Gadael sylw

 

NEW YORK – Gervonta Davis, Pencampwr byd ieuengaf America, a Na. 1-ranked challenger Liam Walsh participated in an international media conference call ar ddydd Mercher in advance of their clash for Davis’ IBF Junior Lightweight World Championship on Dydd Sadwrn, Mai 20 on SHOWTIME from Copper Box Arena in London. Davis vs. Mae Walsh yn rhan o safle hollt, four-fight SHOWTME CHAMPIONSHIP BOXING telecast that begins at 6 p.m. A/3 p.m. PT. Yn y prif ddigwyddiad, Gary Russell Jr. Bydd yn gwneud ei ail amddiffyniad teitl pwysau plu a'i gartref hir-ddisgwyliedig yn erbyn yr heriwr gorfodol Oscar Escandon yn fyw o Harbwr Cenedlaethol MGM ychydig y tu allan i Washington, D.C.

 

Mayweather Promotions CEO Leonard Ellerbe and Hall of Fame boxing promoter Frank Warren also joined the call to talk about their fighters.

 

Here is what the principals had to say ar ddydd Mercher:

 

GERVONTA DAVIS

Thoughts on going to London to make his first title defense on foreign soil:

“I believe it was the right business move as far as getting me to the UK in my early career and giving the fans what they want to see. I have a lot of UK fans after the [Jose] Pedraza fight so I think it’s a good change. It’s good for me to fight in the UK. I fought overseas when I was an amateur so now I’m going as a pro and I feel like it’s a great opportunity.

 

“I’m actually excited to fight in the UK. I believe that I will have a crowd over there and I’m excited to put on a show for the UK fans.”

Have you watched Liam Walsh’s tapes? Do you think his style is sort of made to order for a fighter liked you?

"Mae'n yn ymladdwr da; I can’t take that away from him. He’s my mandatory so I’m taking him seriously. I’ve actually looked at a couple of his fights. Mae'n yn ymladdwr gweddus, but I’m just on another level. My mind, my skills, I’m on another level than what he’s saying and what his fans are saying too.”

 

What has it been like since you won the title?

“It’s been pretty good. I’m actually staying level headed, staying focused. Getting the world title is a step closer to where I want to be. Having a belt is cool, but I’m trying to do more in the sport. I want to be the next star of boxing. I want to do more in the sport. This is just one more step to me.”

 

Do you feel like you need to win by knockout?

“Of course. I can’t rely on his mistakes, he’s capable of going down.”

 

On finishing camp with Floyd Mayweather in Vegas:

“When I got back to Vegas, Floyd Mayweather was hands on more than usual, working with me in the gym late nights. I’m working extra hard. Having him back in the gym gives me that extra push and has my mind on another level.

 

“Having him in my corner makes me feel like I have that chance. I have one of the best in the business backing me. It means a lot. It makes me work harder.”

 

How has your experience growing up in inner-city Baltimore influenced you?

“Just growing up in that inner city, it gave me the hunger I have today. My folks struggled. I knew that when it was time for me to turn pro, it was time for me to help feed my family. I’m ready to do big things in the sport of boxing and outside of the sport.

“I believe I have the youth right now. Right now I’m one of the youngest (pencampwyr y byd), and believe I have the youth right now. I believe that as I continue to keep winning and crowning myself, a lot of young kids will look up to me and it will help get them on the right track.”

 

Going into this fight do you think Liam Walsh is your toughest opponent so far?

“I believe so. I’ve fought a world champion. Mae'n diguro. Nid wyf yn gwybod, I have to see when I get in there. On paper he might seem like a tough opponent. I won’t know until I get in there and see what he brings to the table.”

 

Is there pressure to try and make statement against him and knock him out or wait to see if the knockout comes?

“I don’t think I have to make a statement by knocking him out. I would rather beat him in 12 rowndiau. We’re going to look for the knockout and if it comes, it comes. But I would rather go on 12 rowndiau. "

 

Would you like to make a prediction?

“I’m coming out on top and keeping my world title.”

 

LIAM WALSH

Can you tell us what you think of Gervonta Davis?

“He certainly has potential and star quality – that was clear to see when he beat [Jose] Pedraza. But he has to come through me first. I don’t see any other way than me winning. If he’s going to be a star in the future, it’s going to have to be with a loss after fighting me.”

 

Are there advantages to fighting at home?

“I thank Frank Warren for that and giving me that advantage. I think it all depends on his mental capacity. He’s coming to a foreign country. Provided that he adapts to the environment and change of scenery, then we’ll find out that night.”

 

You were Pedraza’s mandatory so were you surprised that Gervonta won that fight and in that dominant a fashion?

“I was to be honest with you. My prediction was Pedraza to win on points. I thought Pedraza had all the attributes and tools to get the job done. But then on the night watching the fight, I was surprised by the way Pedraza went about his work. I thought Gervonta looked brilliant and mature beyond his years. I think he put on a really good show but I thought Pedraza could have gone about it a little bit better.”

 

What are your advantages in the fight against Gervonta Davis?

“First and foremost, I don’t think he’s completely overrated, but I think there are still a lot of questions to be asked of him. He looked very good and brilliant against Pedraza. The only other reputable fighter on his record is Cristobal Cruz. There are a lot of question marks lingering on.

 

“I feel like I’ve been in tougher fights than him. I feel like I’ve been in longer fights. I think I have a better boxing IQ than him. He’s very powerful, very physical and very fast, but we haven’t seen him in a long fight or a dog fight or a grueling fight though. I will certainly ask all these questions. I’ll do it any which way that it has to go. I’m more than confident I’ll get the job done.”

 

Is it key to take the fight into later rounds?

“I think possibly, yeah. I think that could be one angle to look at it. We’re not going to really know until the first bell rings. We all have game plans, but good fighters have to adapt. There’s going to be ebbs and flows in this fight, but I think the better fighter will prevail and I think that’s me.”

Boxing is hot in UK, how much of a benefit do you think will that be for you?

“I think it’s definitely beneficial to be fighting at home. I don’t live far from London so I won’t have to leave my house until a couple of days before the fight and obviously my sons will be there in support for me. It’s definitely beneficial. I want us both to get a fair crack and I’m sure it will be. When you’re the home fighter, you feel more obliged to dig a little bit deeper for your home fans who are cheering for you. So that’s what I’ll do.”

What is your prediction for the fight?

“Like 21 previous times, I’ll always predict I’ll win. So that’s what I’ll predict again. One thing is factually certain, I’ll give my absolute all. My prediction is I’ll come away with victory and the belt, whichever which way I have to. I’ll find a way to come away with that belt.”

 

Over here in the U.S., the sentiment is that Gervonta is the favorite in the fight. Do you think you’re the favorite because of the experience that you bring to the ring?

“I don’t think I’m the favorite but I’m not a 3-1 underdog. When I was told that, I thought I must be fighting three people. I’ve never been a 3-1 underdog. I’m a big underdog apparently, but certainly not in my eyes. In my eyes it won’t be a massive shock if I win this title. The U.S. fans think it will be a walk-over, but that couldn’t be more further from the truth. I can understand him being the favorite with all the hype and Mayweather behind him, but I’m baffled by being that much of an underdog. But we’ll find out.”

 

Is there extra motivation in being the underdog?

“Yes, it’s extra motivation. My friends are betting on me and when I win, they’ll have a great night. This is the first time I’ve been the underdog in my pro career, and I’m really enjoying being the underdog. I’m really thriving on it.”

 

LENOARD ELLERBE, Davis’ promoter and Mayweather Promotions CEO:

“This is going to be an unbelievable fight and we are looking forward to promoting our first event on foreign soil. We expect a sold-out crowd and this is going to be a very, very exciting fight.

 

“We think this is a wonderful opportunity and a tremendous platform for [Gervonta] to be able to showcase his skills across the world. With him being a young champion I think he has an advantage, and working alongside someone like Floyd, someone who can explain to him what it’s like to go into hostile territory and what to expect coming into a big fight. All those intangibles, along with his hard work and preparation he’s done, I think he has a tremendous advantage and has the perfect team in his corner to get the job done.

 

“We are very comfortable with the judges and we expect a very level playing field. Tank just has to go in there and stay focused and do what he does. I think his skills will speak loud and clear. Liam Walsh is a tremendous fighter and he has a tremendous following and he has been in some good fights.

 

“This is similar to back in 2005 when Floyd went into Atlantic City and beat Arturo Gatti. But this is a little different in that, as Tank mentioned, he has a lot of fans in the UK. I don’t think it’s going to be one-side. Because one thing I do love about the UK fans is that they are very, very knowledgeable boxing fans. They can appreciate skill level and fighters that are really, da iawn. Tank has a tremendous social media presence and a tremendous following in the UK. As far as the crowd is concerned, I’m not so sure it’s going to be all Liam Walsh. Tank is going to have a lot of support there. A, eto, when you have the kind of preparation he has had, and you are focused, that’s what it’s going to come down to.

 

“The focus right now is Liam Walsh and Dydd Sadwrn nos. As long as Tank stays focused and does what he does, the sky is the limit. He has a tremendous team and he’s working with the best promoter in all of boxing. We are really excited about this young man’s career and in our eyes he’s the most exciting fighter in all of boxing. And soon he’s going to be the biggest star in all of boxing.”

FRANK WARREN, Neuadd yr Enwogion hyrwyddwr:

“The Copper Box Arena is where they held the boxing for the London Olympics. It’s a fantastic venue with the crowd right on top of the ring. That atmosphere is going to be fantastic and it’s going to be a sellout. This fight is a great opportunity for the American public watching on SHOWTIME, and for those in England, to see a really good quality fight. In some ways this fight reminds me a lot of when Joe Calzaghe fought against Jeff Lacy, who was a big favorite, and Joe took him to school.

 

“I think it’s always best to have the home advantage. You got your fans there and your home support. The British boxing fans are passionate fans, and they are going to get behind their man. Sometimes when you’re away from home, you may not get the best out of you. When you are at home, you have to do your best because those fans are there for you. I much prefer the home advantage and it’s worked well for us in the past, like when we did the fight with Ricky Hatton fight and Kostya Tszyu and he went in as a massive underdog in that fight and he ended up winning. And we’ve done that on numerous occasions. But you have to have a good fighter.

 

“With Liam, he’s been under the radar with some of the problems we’ve mentioned outside the ring. But the fact of the matter is that he’s one of the best British boxers. He’s an excellent fighter. He’s not an old 30, he’s a young 30 oed. If Gervonta Davis is going to be what the people think he’s going to be, well then he will be that if he beats Liam Walsh. And to beat Liam Walsh, you have to be something special.

 

“Everyone is looking for the next big thing. Ydy [Gervonta] overrated? We will find out. I know one thing is for sure, Liam is underrated. And that’s going to be the difference.”

HARBWR CENEDLAETHOL, MD (Mai 10, 2017) – Cuban star Rances Barthelemy will look to take one step closer to becoming the first Cuban fighter to win world titles in three weight classes when he battles Kiryl Relikh in a WBA 140-pound title eliminator on Dydd Sadwrn, Mai 20 on SHOWTIME from MGM National Harbor in Maryland.

 

Mae darllediadau teledu yn dechrau ar SHOWTIME yn 6 p.m. A/3 p.m. PT and is headlined by WBC Featherweight World Champion Gary Russell Jr. defending his title against top challenger Oscar ESCANDON plus super middleweight contenders Andre Dirrell ac Jose Uzcategui in a matchup for the Interim IBF Super Middleweight World Championship. Yn yr agorwr telecast, o Copper Box Arena yn Llundain, Gervonta Davis defends his IBF 130-pound world championship against Liam Walsh.

 

Tocynnau ar gyfer y digwyddiad byw yn Harbwr Cenedlaethol MGM, hyrwyddir gan TGB Promotions, yn costio $200, $150, $100 ac $50, ac maent ar werth yn awr. I brynu tocynnau ewch i http://mgmnationalharbor.com/.

 

Already a champion at 130 and 135-pounds, a victory over the former title challenger Relikh will put Barthelemy in the mandatory position to face unified 140-pound champion Julius Indongo and do something that no fighter has done in the rich history of Cuban boxing.

 

Here is what Barthelemy had to say from training camp in Las Vegas:

 

1) How is training camp going? How have you benefitted from sparring and training alongside of your brother Leduan and Yordenis Ugas and have their recent performances been an indication of how you expect to perform?

 

“Training camp is going really well. Training alongside of my brother and Yordenis under the tutelage of Ismael Salas is the best thing that could happen in my career. They keep me focused and motivated to get better every day. Yordenis and I have been helping each other during our camps, he’s an Olympic athlete so having him to train with is really beneficial. We have a new strength and conditioning coach as well who has us in the best shape possible. Yr wyf yn gwybod Mai 20 you guys will see the best Rances Barthelemy yet.”

 

2) What would it mean to you to become the first three-division world champion from Cuba?

 

“It would mean the world to me, after all that it took to defect from Cuba, the near death experiences, the imprisonments, leaving my loved ones behind, it would all have been worth it. I want to inspire the youth that come after me as well, let them know to never give up on their dreams no matter the conditions you live in or what the naysayers may say. Me winning a third world title and making history for a Cuban would prove that.”

 

3) What did you take away from Relikh’s loss to Ricky Burns?

 

“I didn’t get to watch the fight but watched the highlights and it seemed like a very entertaining fight. People were saying that it probably should have gone the other way even, so it seems like he put on a good performance.”

4) How would you characterize Relikh’s style and how do you see this fight playing out?

 

“He likes to come forward a lot and attack. I’m prepared for that if that’s what he plans to do come fight night but I also anticipate having to make adjustments. I always prepare to adjust to whatever my opponent brings. Being a cerebral fighter is a skill that has helped me succeed inside the ring.”

5) Can you address your 11-month layoff and how your training has been geared towards shaking off any ring rust you may have?

 

“There will be no ring rust come Mai 20 as we have been in the gym non-stop since my last fight against Mickey Bey. We took a few weeks off to visit Cuba for the first time since my defection. Aside from that I made sure to stay active and I’ve been training hard to be prepared when my name got called. The 11-month layoff happened for reasons out of my control. My management team has been trying to get the best opponents and unfortunately it took longer than we expected but we are here now and I’m as prepared as I have ever been.”

 

6) How did you trip back to Cuba come about and what was it like to be back in your home country?

“It was very emotional and a long eight years since I had been back. I didn’t know if I’d be able to go back or not. But I visited the Cuban embassy in Washington D.C. and they told me I’d finally be able to go back to visit my loved ones. It was nothing but nerves until I got over there. It was an emotional time and everyone welcomed me back with open arms in my hometown of Havana. It’s something I will never forget, especially for the way I was received.”

7) How do you rate your skills and progression as a fighter considering your last three dominant wins over top quality opposition? Do you feel that you are at the peak of your career?

 

“I am definitely at my peak physically, and I’m looking to match that on paper this year. I’m looking forward to getting back in the ring. I don’t like to rate myself, I leave that to the people and the media. They’ve taken notice and that’s why I am where I am today, but I am expecting big things to happen this year.”

 

8) Why did you feel it was time to rise in weight, especially considering the wealth of talent at 135 ar hyn o bryd? Who do you consider to be the top 135 fighter now that you are gone?

 

“My body was asking for it, 135 was taking too much of a physical toll on me. It may not have been noticeable, but I struggled to make weight during my last fight at 135 and felt I lost some of my power because of the drainage. Since I moved up to 140 I definitely have felt a lot better. It was the right move. Mwy, I now have the chance to go after a third world title in a third division, which would be the first time for any boxer from Cuba.”

 

9) Why did you make the decision to move from Miami to Las Vegas and how do you think it has benefited you?

“To be honest, there is nothing better for a Cuban than to be living in Miami, because the weather is just right and what we are used to. But at the same time it presents a lot of distractions too. So moving to the boxing hub of the United States is better for me so I don’t get wrapped up in anything extra other than boxing. Mwy, there are so many sparring partners here and I can go up to Mt. Charleston and get my runs in up there.”
